Given that the National Train Show is scheduled for this summer in Portland, Oregon, CZM has applied and hopes to be present to exhibit as an operational Z-scale modular layout along with some BYOZ (bring-your-own-Z) table exhibits. We also expect to share space with many of our west coast friends with Z-club participation covering Washington, Oregon and California.
I fully expect having the Canyon Module plus my 30° module operating in the group's layout. What is still a bit of an unknown is whether the Central End Module will be ready for its second public appearance, its first being part of the exhibit we did for the February 2007 WGH on Tour show in Portland. With the complete re-working of the turnout control system on the Central End well underway, my plan is certainly to get the module operational and reliable in time for the August event.
